Sunday, October 30, 2005

haha... helluva weekend i had! total fun, and more fun. shit... wish i could have more of such weekends... :)

but, let's start with fri. fri was tennis and more tennis! after sch, which ended quite quickly... went with youjiang (which hence forth will be called yj) to play tennis. under the surprisingly hot sun, we played. it was shocking cuz it had been raining ever so often during afternoons! :/ yup... soon we were joined by dedrick and ks... and since i was using my old racket, i was having some problems with consistency... :/ pity i had to leave early to get home cuz cm was coming over. we watched some vids, talked nonsense... and soon we headed down for tennis after the rain stopped, just on time... :) what luck! :)) we played, and had a nervous match, which concluded 6-4 4-6... it was aurdous! it was quite gd initially, but as we got tired, it became more and more crappy... ;) but i did have lotsa fun... haha

k, sat! woke up really late in e day... then went down to meet mark and nick for a movie. it was doom. it was so reminiscent of resident evil. but, the plot was not as gd, and resident evil hardly had any. but i found it quite thrilling still, and the part where it played like e game, was cool and refreshing... :) after tt, had dinner at carl's junior. geez! the burgers are huge. and given my pre-existing condition of limited jaw activity (hurting realll bad), i had trouble distending my jaw to accomodate tt hugemongueous burger! (haha, see, e length of tt word makes u think e burger is v huge rite?) ;) played pool -again- after tt. arghh... totally suck now. i can't aim nowadays! aiya, was quite disgusting cuz i was just missing so much... bah!

after tt, i went home and changed and went clubbing. heh, it was v fun! was some sorta halloween thingie... and there were, all sorts of costumes. i dunno why there's halloween stuff so early, but it was quite fun watching. haha... safe to say, those pple with their bulky costumes, didn't really dance. i danced and danced till my legs were sore... gosh! so tired... from 12-4... but yeah la, with breaks... yes. but it was really so enjoyable... u guys were great!! love it when there are enthu pple who would drag u to e dance floor... so u'll feel like dancing even if u r tired! thnx so much for e fun... and its great to have so many easterners, so going home is easy! :) reached home at like 5... and had to wake up at 9+ e nice day for tennis!! got many nice pix of us clubbing! but i'm lazy to post la... maybe next time... haha! :)

gosh... was soo groggy in e morning, framing shots everywhere and stuff. aiyo! terrible... :/ played dubs which me n ryan won, barely, like 7-6(0) against col n wilson... the sun was terrible, just soo hot. gosh, the weather is so xtreme. either so hot, or raining. hmmm, it hasn't rained in 2 days! so puzzling... haha. after tt, had lunch at ajisen at tm (tampines mall)... chatted and chatted for so long. then went coffee bean to slack even more. haha... amazing how much one can talk rite? yes, but its all in e company of pple tt can talk to each other though...

well, i shall go bath now. its late! arghh...

Thursday, October 27, 2005

haha... i'm so lazy... lying on my bed blogging away now... :)

just finished 2 episodes of sex and the city... its really nice now... its less abt e sex now... lol. and well, its nice to see what happens to the characters... :) anw, i've not been doing quite enough work these few days... maybe i'm just too tired and i can't keep my concentration... :/ oh wells.

sch's actually been rather short these few days... so tt's great! :) and the weekends coming, so i'm in a good mood... :P today, we had this simulation thing at NUH... and i felt it was great! so amusing to see tt lil robotic patient say hi to u, blink and do all sortsa silly lil things...

today, marc, weili, ian and me went bukit timah plaza to play pool. wth, i think i've deproved so much, its just play embarrassing. everything is off by some bits, and so its just disaster in e making. and as marc noted, i had terrible luck... or maybe just terribly bad skills... ;)

after tt, went bukit timah, eh, some kinda food center thingie. well, i had no choice but to get congee cuz for some bizzare reason, the whole right side of my jaw is hurting so bad, i can barely move it much, except for talking. arghhh... i think it started when i yawned alot... it sorta stretched, maybe overstretched? i dunno, but the pain is spreading, and i've a feeling its getting swollen. boohoo.

Tuesday, October 25, 2005

boohoo! it poured like mad just now... :( i stepped into heeren, deciding to use e toilet and look at some CDs... and wham, it just rained. so i ran a short 10m to e bus stop... and i just so happened to be wearing clima-cool shoes and socks! yay... e bottom has lil airvents to cool my feet. naturally, water went thru those vents soaking my feet. and they sure froze in e bus... :( bah! luckily, by e time i reached home, e rain had almost stopped.. well, its actually v nice, this rainy weather. the scenery looks so different, e usual familiar routes. the water sorta shrouds everything, and its nice to see cars zooming thru e semiflooded roads and splashing water around. esp when it goes so high!

sadly for those friends in army, i dun think u'd really appreciate e rain. i sympathise w u guys... :( must suck to be outfield in e rain. i must say, i'm kinda lucky... never had bad weather during outfield or field camp or exercises... really lucky.

anw, on e bus i realise i think abt lotsa things - v useless things... :/ but i think i shall keep it to myself... haha. oh, and i realise tt i always take e same buses... 48, 36, 196... oh, and 95 of course! and somehow, 36 likes to come in lil grps. in pairs! well, so it serves as a doubledecker bus?? it once came 4 at once... oh well.

in orchard today with iantankaizhi, i was planning to look at e new ipod video launched last week end! and after looking round e shop, i realised it wasn't there. e person said its sold out. already. apple is sooo smart. they know how to keep their sales up. e CEO of apple recently said after releasing e ipod nano tt there were no plans to release anything video like. so naturally, e nano being so gorgeous, sold tonnes. i was already getting suspicious when i updated my itunes, and suddenly, it had a video function... then, bam! suddenly this ipod video comes out. let me elaborate on why its so good...

e ipod photo was 30gb, costs 548. the ipod video costs 548, and is 30gb too. its is 40% less volume, and its screen is larger. batt life is up from 14-20. it plays vids. dun u freaking feel cheated?! i do.. esp when i bought e ipod photo when it first came out in its 40gb version, only to have e price for a 60gb version to come out, cheaper! wth. apple is so good at this. but what to do? e stuff look so good and all, u just feel like buying it. sighs...

anw, here's my to buy list:

1 tennis gear and bag
2 ipod video (sheessh, gotta save up!!)
3 xbox 360(!!)
4 other miscellaneous stuffs.

well, so heres to lousy food and no more nice drinks starting from now... :)

Sunday, October 23, 2005

ok, its been a while... once again... ;) haha... sch's been so busy! got so much work to catch up on... its such a vicious cycle... :/ think i must pay attention during lectures so tt i can even begin to reduce e deficit... :(

anw, wed-sunday... interesting happens...

wed, played tennis with youjiang, ks and lisa! haha... it was quite fun. we were just camping in e library waiting for e annoyingly light (but sufficiently heavy to deter us from playing) drizzle, to rain itself out. after a rather long wait, it finally did! but e courts were kinda wet, and i made youjang slip and hurt his butt... :/ oops. well, at least nothing serious resulted.

thurs, was just a long and deary day, what with e extra tutorial which i didn't really understand cuz i hadn't done or read thru it... bah.

fri! was so happy tt e weekend was here... :) went w my PBL grp to SGH. hmmm, first time i had lunch with them as a grp... ;) i drew lotsa varied comments with my formal wear. there was e, u look like a salesman, then there's e, u like anything but a doctor. then theres e, why are u so dressed up?! and of course, e, nice ones like, hey, u look gd... :) the shuttle bus service we had to take to SGH was just so pathetic!! i mean, wth, pple have to wait a few trips just to get on it?! what abt those poor suffering patients? :/ i dunno... :( oh wells. we got told off by this ah pek cuz we didn't seem to be lining up properly... eh, whatever. e hospital had a really interesting thing... e system tt delivers the documents! haha. it apparently can switch tracks, go up several storeys... and yeah, its really fascinating... ;) so we went to the cardiac wards, and everyone seems to be peacefully slping. alvin stood near a door, and suddenly, 2 doors opened. we were kinda stunned! hmmm... he swears he did nothing. aha...

the doctor who took us was rather young, but he was married and all. but some pple in e grp were commenting on his pimples and eyebags - signs of haggardness and things we'd experience a few years down e road... :( oh well... and then of course, he was quite desensitized... things like, after he removed e socks of a patient to check for oedema, and realising she didn't have any... so he said, unfortunately, her oedema has gone down... haha! fortunately for u, e patient doesn't understand english... ;)

well, all in all, i felt tt e wards, is not bad a place to be in. u get to interact with the patients, and try to help them. i guess tt's why i'm here... i really wanted a job tt would give me e chance for interactivity and more applied stuff as opposed to research... :)

after tt, met kat and gary for dinner... haha, kat was really nice... bought me sunflower to cheer me up cuz i was complaining of my gloominess... well, i took a pix of it, cuz all my previous attempts at preserving flowers have NEVER turned out rite... :(

sat... had e usual tennis session with many many hiccups, for which i apologize for... :/ but still had fun as usual... oh, and my dad has been buying really yummy food from ard e streets. cheap too! :) there was this chicken wings fried in shrimp paste, so e crust was so much more flavoured... then this char kway tiao stall tt fries their stuff in those special leaf thingies (k, i bet u're lost, but i really dunno how to describe it)... and it was really gd... and nearby, so i can have lotsa it now... hurhurhur... :) then there are other stuff, which i've had b4, but are nice anw... :P was quite upset cuz my PS2 was spoilt! arghh... and i was trying to play dota too, but cuz of my screwy internet, i got so frustrated i went to play xbox instead... haha. :P can't wait for e xbox 360 to come out... it looks so chio man! :)

well, today... went KTV in e morning. my voice can't make it... stupid singers like jay chou, tao ze, wang li hong and wilbur, all have voices tt allow them to sing so effortlessly. i just croak ard trying to even match half of what they can sing. boohoo... :'( but e new kbox at marina sq is quite nicely decorated! it reminds me of e one in genting... :) also went to chocz at esplande today... ate these things... totally yummy, and absolutely - not cheap. haha.

banana brulee - i replaced e cherry stalk cuz i excitedly ate e cherry b4 i took e pix... :x

chocolate fondue of sorts. not sure what it is... had orangey taste. there's quite a few other types... :)

also borrowed more DVDs... too... ermm... nvm... ;) legal issues shall not be discussed here... :P

Tuesday, October 18, 2005

been playing a lot of tennis... part of my greater scheme to get myself in shape... but am still severely lacking in fitness... gotta run more... but well, as usual, i never have e discipline... :( tennis has been up and down, sometimes gd, sometimes rather bad! :x haha... today was a bad forehand, but gd backhand day... arghh.. its so hard to achieve any decent form of consistency.

anw, on sunday, i finally managed to step foot into 点小二 (dian xiao er)... its this restaurant tt has a perpetually long queue outside. i always found it difficult to peek at e menu, so for fear of having to wash dishes after a meal, i decided tt i'd have a family lunch there instead... haha... ;) well, after a long wait, we got seated in the rustic looking restaurant. well, e decor fits e theme, the wooden planks and heavy stones, and straw (?) or is it hay (??!) like stuff, haha... and the cute gong tt sounds everytime food is churned out from e busy lil kitchen. even the waiters are dressed in some uncomfy looking costume made of some sort of ancient looking coarse cloth (can't remember what its called, hence e roundabt awkward description).

the ten spices herbal roast duck was superb! yummy... i totally loved tt... and so was the crispy beancurd... :) the mongolian spareribs were quite unique too... somewhat crunchy, but juicy and having a lovely flavour abt it. the other stuff we had weren't like v special... but quite ok la... :) after tt, did some grocery shopping. i shall not elaborate futher on the obscence amt of junk food i stocked up... :X haha...

alrite, today... after 4 horrendously slow lectures... ackk... i went down to TTSH to meet my mentor. on my way there, met my pri sch friend, and we chatted a lil... he still hasn't moved house! haha... anw, my mentor was really big shot. he's a MBBS, M.Med, FRACS, FRCSE, FACG. FAMS, PPA (E), PPA (P), Justice of Peace, Department of Gerenal Surgery, TTSH Director of Clinical Training, TTSH Associate Dean... blah blah... i dun even know what half of those things i typed were... simply... he's quite somebody. he had pple buy us lunch which we consumed in his office. and we just talked for an hour. it was really interesting, as he was telling us abt what we should expect, as well as the human aspect of medicine which we mustn't neglect. he really had trouble remembering my name, and it was quite a fiasco... ;) but nvm... he's really a nice guy, and well, he asked me n e other 2 pple in my grp when our bdays are, and it so happened tt ours were all within a month of each other. so he happily chirped in tt his was on 30th Feb. lol... if only we could've more lecturers like tt... ;)

oh on our way there, we walked thru a lil courtyard, for docs only or sth... its really nice. got gym, and childcare center, lounge... i can only imagine e childcare center... the kids will be, mine dad's a cardiac surgeon. oh, mine is a oncologists... after tt, i took a walk round e place, and i must say, its not like i'd have thot it'd be... the place isn't quite so gloomy... maybe its e color scheme working its intended effect? i dunno... :)

Sunday, October 16, 2005

i think i've a theory... when i dun actively try to control my spending... i tend to overspend.. :( i spent all my pocket this week, plus what was left in my wallet from e previous week! :/ bought too many things this week... ate too much nice food... really gotta stop myself... :x

anyway... i watched deuce bigalow today... haha. it was rather crude in many many ways... and explicit too... but really, it was totally hilarious... :) haha... quite amusing... haha. this is not e kinda movie u'd wanna watch at home w yr family though... ;)

bought yanzi's album... haha... its a gd buy! cheap and got lotsa nice stuff inside... haha. the songs itself are nice... :) oh, but anw, its so cute cuz she dyed her hair red, and then there's this extra cd inside, and she calls herself rambutan! haha. then got cute pix of her doing lotsa things... and the whole theme is v laid back... i like it... :) which i could have 'a perfect day' too... it would be similar to what i see in there... simple, laid back... near the sea... gosh, i love e beach... :)

oh, i also bought this new face wash... haha. from Thefaceshop... its all in korean, so i dunno much abt it. but i like it a lot! makes my face feel so clean and nice, but not too dry! haha... :) its not cheap though... :/

oh, and secret recipe is having this offer... its damn cheap man! buy 1 $5 slice and get 1 free... their cakes are so yummy, and yet they're having this offer?! wow... i ate happily, not just cuz it was delicious, but cuz it was easy on my pocket too... :) lol... yes, i'm money conscious now... :P

met chunming at marina sq today! oh he's a platoon mate of mine in e past... and he's rather poorthing... leaving for aus in a few days, for more than a month! :( gosh... and the saddest part is, it was only 4 of them out of 20+ pple who have to go... so unlucky! arghh... feel so sorry 4 him...

hmmm, but overall, i really had a great day today... best day in quite a long long while... am so thankful... :)

Friday, October 14, 2005

so glad e weekend is here... i desperately need a break from sch... just some time to myself, an outlet away from reality... i think i'm not so happy nowadays somewhat. sure, i still laugh and joke and smile... but really, does tt say much? i think sometimes, only when u feel at ease with someone, tt is when u can let yr hair down in front of them..

i wonder... will e internet cease to exist one day? or maybe, blogger would close down one day. then what would happen to all these terrible writings i've put up here over e years? ok, i dunno why i said tt... ;)

yeah... have been talking to some pple overseas... e internet is great... its what makes it possible... :) i miss a lot of u guys, all over... and those stuck in army. e days when i could just pick up e phone, and all of ya are just a quick dial away... the days when we had time to sit ard and talk, catch a movie, have fun. i miss those times when things were easy. guess, i've got lotsa growing up to do...

Thursday, October 13, 2005

n..

damn... i was one pissy boy this morning... i really didn't like e fact i woke up so early to go to sch to listen to a guy speak english with a horrid chinese accent. i dunno why... but its one of those weird things tt really get on my nerves... :/ oh wells...

but after tt lecture, it was ok i guess... e 2nd lecturer (miss i always forget my lecture times), turned up! and let us off early too... haha... so i went for lunch in orchard w kaizhi, weili and kaesian... lol. still find calling ian kaizhi damn funny... ;) anw, had pepper lunch for lunch... the food was gd and all... :) haha... think e price is a lil steep though... :(

anw, headed over to queensway to buy cheap stuff after tt! haha... the stuff there are seriously cheap... i bought a pair of jeans and got my length and the baginess altered in like 25mins for $30... i think tt's rather cheap... :) bought some t-shirts too since i realised i've way too many shirts... haha. and school weather isn't conducive for shirts... ;)

after tt, i attempted to apply for my PDL so i could start taking driving lessons. unfortunately... an unforseen mishap happened! :( i went to e wrong counter, and as a result, i was told, i had to go to e second level. then the person added in, i think it closes at 5... i looked at my watch... 5.10... well, i thot, hmmm, it should be fine rite? no! not rite... :( bah... wasted trip... looks like i've to return some other day... bah!! how annoying... i really wanna pass and drive for a while man... sounds fun! ;)

oh, i've gotten so lazy now... i've just been lying in bed and watching tv shows... :/ and now i've discovered e joy of lying in bed to type my blog... its so comfy... gosh. i'm gonna get muscle atrophy from lack of movement... :x

Wednesday, October 12, 2005

haha... k, i kinda said i would just update my blog periodically... so i've failed. i think i give up trying to catch up w what i missed out on... its just a hopeless thing! :P

firstly... desperate housewives rock! haha... and so does sex and e city... been downloading and watching them! i'm currently keeping up w US for DH, and i've got only 1 more season for SATC... yeah man... more laughter... ;)

lucky thing happened today... i volunteered to buy dessert for ian and weili... (rare happening)... then on my way back, i saw roystan! haha... and he called me over to e phone... and it was christine over e other end! :) haha... u!!! claim tt u knew i was gonna meet roystan huh... really now... ;) so far fetched lor! zhen ling wo chai yi!!! haha... anw, happy bday, and take care of yr hair... haha!

haha... k, so i've came to e conclusion tt our mass tutorials suck. if its too inconvenient, i dun think i'd be inclined to attend them anymore. after torturing myself for close to 4 hours, waiting for the tutorial with eager anticipation, in hopes of satiating my inquenchable thirst for knowledge (as well as e tutorial which i couldn't answer)... the moment came! haha... what a rude shock we all got. the tutorial had practically no structure, and for an hour, we just jumped from 'strength' to 'strength'... rite. well well... so an hour passed just like tt?! bah. so i was thinking, maybe e next tutorial would be better... and lo and behold... the tutorial was cancelled. it was e same stupid *@#&$*#$ who always forgets tt she has tutorials. funny how she somehow manages to remember it just b4 e tutorial huh? really... its totally mistifying...

anw... this is a picture i took with my anat grp! haha... the guy w white hair is, actually, was our tutor... he's really funny and good! i only wish he could tutor us once again... and he watches lotsa channel 55 shows like me! haha... no one else knew what da chang jin is... but i did! lol... :P anw, i know we took lotsa pix... but somehow, i managed to look at e wrong camera but for this shot... arghh.. so paiseh... :/ haha. i swear i heard e voice coming from behind another camera! ahh! they all sounded e same! :P look at us! who'd have thot we'd all someday become doctors! haha...




link to downsized pix: http://tinypic.com/eimmg5.jpg

and i think i've become predisposed to sleeping really late... i tried to slp early last nite... but ended up chatting here, watching DH on my com... blah here and there... till it was v late again. then as usual, i'd end up so tired during lecture and sch... and yawn so much! well, according to my tutor, i was having inspiration, otherwise known as yawning. e first time he saw it, he said, its gd! stimulates e brain... then e subsequent times... he wasn't too amused... he kept firing qns at me... and said, i'm trying to keep u awake. haha, this is e first tutorial i have w him... what a way to start... ;)

well well... biochem has been an absolute nitemare for me... i've really never been gd at mugging processes or molecules... like for A's, kelvin's cycle, i missed out 2 steps for essay... so yeah, u can see i'm so bad at this. haiz... i dunno what i'm gonna do... wish i could mug for 3 nites without slping too... ;) like some pple i heard... but well, ain't gonna happen... maybe i'd end up in a coma..? -.-?

been playing lotsa tennis... i really love tt game... :) haha! think i've been too up and down... not too down, but definitely not as up as a while back... i must play more, cuz i dun wanna grow fat from lack of physical activites... esp since my dad just bought sooo much ice cream... :D

lastly, i'm pleased at how much restrain i've been exercising... :) i've not been spending much... today, i felt like buying a bag, jeans and belt... but i managed to stop myself cuz i was convinced i could buy them for a cheaper price elsewhere... so hope i find it cheaper somewhere else, or maybe, those things just lose their appeal... :)

Monday, October 10, 2005

i think i shall update my blog till what happened today. cuz often, i feel like saying somethings, and i dun, cuz i feel like i've yet to catch up... and often, those interesting thoughts (well, interesting to myself) get lost... haha.

anw, its been 2 weeks of sch already i think... lost track of time. and well, its been rather tiring, yes. everyone is mugging so hard, yet i can't do it. so i'm feeling e heat man... but yes, i gotta know e stuff, else my patients will be in danger. guess, i do have lotsa responsibility. i should be less frivilous... ah...

abt... food! went to crustaceans with ks, ian and weili one fine fri afternoon... and had the set lunch... it was yummy! e soup (thick and not watery like ian says...), came with bread with chopped and slightly grilled tomatoes! yummy! then, there was steak, thick and juicy... quite shocked i was e only one having medium-rare... is it *tt* disgusting?! then the dessert - coffee flavoured pina cotta! haha, the waitress, was super friendly, but she was trying to tell us what pina cotta was, so i found it rather amusing... ;) lol

then later the next week, i had lunch w claire and hs at e-brews! yummy... i love e food there, but not e service, nor e cleaniliness of e utensils... :x haha... but e food was good... e blacken dory was thick and succulent, and so tender! and the jasmine rice, ever so fragrant! :) haha... then there was e giagantic apple crumble?!! haha... so sweet and huge... was really satisfying... felt gd to have a meal w my pple i became so close to during my jc years... :) miss u all.. and esp u aaron! haha... its been so long since i saw u... online, in person?! haha, k, digressing... :P

then, on sat, i had dinner w my parents at last! :) ate at olio's... i'm so sad tt e branch at wheel lock's is gone... e menu is vastly different... and i think e variety, wider as well. but i settled for seared cod steak with sth... haha... its nice... and surprisingly v filling though it looked minute. well, it was chunky u see... its really like a steak... ;) haha.

so, this is just some of e nice food i had recently! i really love eating nice foods... :) haha... to bad they cost so much! :(

ok, other than food, i also love movies. unfortunately, i've hit a really bad patch or sth... watching one after another bad movie! :x since e horror tt was red shoes (no, it wasn't scary, just plain bad), i had corpse bride, dukes of hazzard, then everlasting regret. let me explain - tim burton's corpse bride was probably a very easy movie, but really, i felt nothing but boredom throughout e movie. it didn't have the appeal tt was finding nemo, or the refreshing creativity tt came with monsters inc for example. maybe it was e dull colors, or e substandard music? i expected more after the nitemare b4 xmas... haha. alrite... but it wasn't tt bad. then there was dukles of hazzard. haha... e only thing funny was jessica and her bimboness... ok, maybe e sound of the horn... ;) but really, i found e jokes not v funny... and i've been wanting to watch something really funny lately! i think tt sex and e city is so much funnier... and so is the longest yard... ha. well, well... am also waiting for a sappy romantic comedy to come out soon... nothing looks gd so far... :( oh, but everlasting regret was not bad i felt. but its not for everyone... it tells an interesting story... and more importantly, i feel tt it subtly put across how e change in china affected its lead character. how as different 'eras' evolved, her relationships changed. and also, it becomes unclear as to who e everlasting regret is intended towards. hmmm... really interesting movie. i would've read e bk this movie is based on, except its in chinese... oh well.

haha, i think i shall stop here for now, cuz i find i'm not really in e mood to say much... but i'll continue soon... nite pple... :)

Monday, October 03, 2005

its time for a new router. my current, unstable internet connection is annoying me to death. downloading stuff, and uploading stuff is such a chore.

and speaking of which... i just watched episode 1 of season 2 of desperate housewives!! it finally finished downloading... it was mighty good i must say... so pleased abt it... lol! :)

another thing... i've gotta get out there and exercise more.. i feel like i'm shrinking and getting less and less fit everyday. arghhh.. hate e feeling! :x

PS: bye zp... have a safe trip! cya in 3 weeks... thnx 4 calling... :)

Sunday, October 02, 2005

hey... long post in a while! :) been rather busy... feel like such a bad friend often. sighs... i dun have time to reply to emails tt often... and on e phone i dun really seem to pay lotsa attention sometimes.. so u know what's happening when i keep going 'huh?'... i dunno.. just so spaced out now adays... like i'm in another dimension or sth... lol!

anws... was chatting w 2 friends e other day, and we were talking abt relationships and stuff... and eventually, it drifted to fairytale endings. do you believe in them? well, tt gotta say, i dun. somehow, nothing fairy-ish has ever happened to me... i mean, not tt i'm dissatisfied w my life rite now or anything, but never has anything really special really happened to me to make change this perspective or mine. hmmmm, one believed in fairytale beginnings - which is probably e cliched honeymoon period... e other believed in fairytale endings. so i asked why... and he said, 'I believe cuz i will make it happen.' ... hmmm, will it? i hope so... cuz maybe then, i'd believe too... haha. maybe i dun, cuz i do not wanna hope. hope can bring e greatest disappointment sometimes... yet often, it is what keeps us going isn't it? esp in times of desperation... ...

other stuff last week - i forgot e which day and all la - what with all e stupid med stuff to cramp in my brain, which isn't working cuz it just seems to seep out anyhow. bah.

watched e brother's grimm... eh, not really good show... kinda long i felt, and a movie is never good when tt happens. well, i somehow, e setting reminded me a lil of The Village. guess e stroy wasn't v well developed, or interesting... haha, basically, dun watch it unless u've nothing to do?

had dinner at this nice place in marina square, vienthai. it has really quite good food, and e price is ok actually... :) a problem i had was with e seats. i got seated at this table which was seperated from e nice by a thin wooden grill. so it was had so much gaps, it was as if u were sitting next to e other table, so close u can see e other person easily and hear what they are saying! haha, it was so strange i had to get a table change... :P

i had this rather interesting noodle (soupy kind) with omelete... heh, its something interesting i've never quite seen b4... and i must say e soup was rather platable... w e taste of e fried omelete in it, and being a nice chicken stock itself... :) quite light... :)

for dessert, i had mango with coconut milk drenched, sticky glutinous rice... it was so yummy! haha... i love coconut, so i obviously am a sucker for this dessert. there were so many other nice deserts all coconut based too.. i've gotta go back soon for dessert tasting... haha!



also went wild wild wet on fri, which was an utter disappointment... :( haiz.. so few rides... plus i bummed my butt on one of the rides, bruising my iliac spine (aiya, one of them... haha). it was quite terrible cuz i couldn't really walk without squirming for a while.. luckily it got better. serious, it was lousy, really bad, except for a ride... which i bummed myself la (yeah, just had to happen rite?)... then watched The Red Shoes. tt totally sucked... like wth was tt?! nonsense movie... dun ever watch it. shall not elaborate for fear of wasting space on my blog. hah. and i did a silly booboo.. was supposed to order pork ribs for weili, ian and me at cafe cartel. 3 ribs walked by and we wondered, eh, isn't tt supposed to be for us?! apparently not.. as 3 pork chops came. oops, i misordered.. so dumb. speaking of which, sometime this week, i did e same thing... :( audrey told me to get fish and chips for her, and somehow i turned around moments later and said chicken cutlet. like huh?! i dunno what happened either... :/ -.-??!

another movie i watched, e 3rd of e week... :/ was Cinderella Man. i was really excellent i felt. impeccable acting by Renee and Russel crowe... and the movie was directed so well... i didn't feel tt it was draggish at all. the story is based on a true story, and all in all, i felt it was a really touching movie, the inspirational kind, sort of like e other crowe-howard collaberation in A Beautiful Mind. i'm a little disgusted tt singaporeans seem to prefer 'The Myth'... yet another jackie chan film, which i feel is getting rather old and tired, esp w e same kind of humor used every film, rahter than this film. hmmm...

anyhow, after tt, i met up w my bmt mates! woohoo... :) haha... its been a while guys. all still looking great!! ;) these guys were e guys tt made my bmt such a wonderful and memorable experience... haha. wonder how i could've beared w it it not for them... :) we went partyworld for ktv... below is e ever poser aloy posing for my cam... haha. and zh in the background crooning to some girl somewhere la... haha! ;)

then this was aloy and yinghao singing xuan zhe... damn amusing. the funnily affectionate faces they were making at each other... haha, best buddies man... i guess so la... ;)


hmmm, all in all, 9 of us turned up and it was great... can't find e photo of us together though! :( nevermmind... laters... haha. yeah, we just had such a blast, laughin our heads off when we tried cajoling krishin to sing hindi songs, but yinghao ended up singing them instead!?! then, of course aloysious... haha. straining to reach e high notes, then giving up at the most inopportune (hence obvious) moments and singing in his low voice, then giving his cheeky face. ahahaa!! and drama zhui singing! haha, but yeah la, u and roger sing really well... :) made me too paiseh to sing anything... lol!

well its late... shall update e rest of e stuff tmr... :) nite everyone...
